if you want to change the name of Panel...

Panel p = new Panel();
p.Name="someName";

try this..

while (dr.Read())
          {
              i = i + 1;
              Panel p = new Panel();
              p.Name="panel" + i.ToString();
              parentControl.Controls.Add(p);

          }

now to get the panels

foreach(Control c in parentControl.Controls)
{
    if(c.GetType().Equals(typeof(Panel))
    {
        Panel temp = (Panel)c;
        if(temp!=null && temp.Name=="panel3")/*'panel3' is the name which you have given while adding the panels*/
             MessageBox.Show("Panel Found");
    }
}

and if you dont want to loop the Controls of parentControl...
you can just access the particular panel by

Panel temp = (Panel)parentControl.Controls["panel3"];/*'panel3 is name which you have given while adding*/
if(temp!=null)
  MessageBox.Show("Panel Found);

you can also get the Panel Collection of the 'parentControl' by using this statement..

/*please ignore if you dont get this statement as you can be done with the above statements*/
var panelCollection = from Control c in parentControl.Controls where c.GetType().Equals(typeof(Panel)) select c;

foreach(Panel p in panelCollection)
{
   /*do what you need to do with the panels here*/
}

hope this helps you..
take care
